The ERP Program
addresses dredging,
filling, and construction in wetlands and other surface water, as
well as stormwater and surface water management systems in uplands.
The program is designed to ensure that activities in uplands,
wetlands and other surface waters do not degrade either water quality or habitat for aquatic or wetland-dependent wildlife. The five
(5) water management district offices and six (6) FDEP Districts
share responsibility for implementing the ERP program.
